 Mr. T

Jimmy Buffett - "A Pirate Looks At 40"

In honour of his passing...

G-Man

The Jerry Cans - "Ukiuq"

I'm a big fan of Canadian music. Definitely was one of my favourite categories when I was getting into music in the 90's. Always felt it should have gotten the same attention as the British Invasion. I still try to include new Canadian acts when i'm in a musical searching mood. The other day I discovered this band from Iqaluit, Nunavut. So now I introduce them to you

Doug

Metric - "Black Sheep"

Dano

The Armed - "Patient Mind"

Jonny HP

Off With Their Heads - "Focus On Your Family"

Mike D

Jamie Fine - "There You Go"

Smash Mouth - "All Star"

and if nobody else is going to honour him...RIP Steve Harwell

J.B.

Khruangbin - "Maria Tambien"

Interesting how a trio with few lyrics can absolutely cram shows and give off a vibe that once was the staple to every hotel bar on evenings during the 70's and 80's. The only thing i'm missing here are the half-off drinks and free peanuts!

Angako's Dream

 

Rob

Blink-182 - "Mutt"

Mr. T

Jimmy Buffett - "A Pirate Looks At 40"

G-Man

The Real McKenzies - "Chip"

Nothing really major to talk about with this one. Just a wicked, badass, mofo-in' Canadian Scotch Punk song, that blasted through my car speakers this morning on the AM commute. Enjoy!

Doug

DVOD - "Scotty Doesn't Know"

Dano

3 Inches Of Blood - "Look Out"

For Ronnie James Motherfuckin' Dio

Jonny HP

The Strumbellas - "Spirits"

Mike D

The All-American Rejects - "Bleed Into Your Mind"

J.B.

Big L - "Put It On"

Back in '99, Big L was shot 9 times and killed in his home neighbourhood in Harlem. Although he wasn't a junior to the scene, some say he would have been a significant contender to being more influential than Jay-Z (not my words). It's crazy to think what they'd both have done to the hip-hop world if he wasn't gunned down. Even crazier, his childhood friend was arrested for his murder, although not convicted. 17 years later, he'd meet the same fate as Big L.
